Maximum Compression of Spring

Maximum Compression of Spring

### Formula

$$\frac{1}{2}kx^2=mgh$$

### Terminologies

- k → Spring constant.

- x → Maximum compression.

- h → Height.

### Conditions / Special Cases

When all kinetic energy converts into spring energy:

$$K=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$$

### Usage

- Used in spring-block collision problems.
